The 2011 Huskies will feature two jewels from what McLaughlin said might be his best recruiting class since he arrived at UW in 2001, including 6-foot-2 outside hitters Krista Vansant (Redland, Calif.) and Summer Ross (Carlsbad, Calif.).

Vansant was named by Prepvolleyball.com as the nation's No. 1 senior; last week Ross was named Beach Female Player of the Year by USA Volleyball.

Ross, who this year became the first athlete to win both FIVB youth and junior world championships in the same year, has also been nominated as U.S. Olympic Committee Sportswoman of the Year.

After transferring from UCLA and sitting out 2010, 6-foot-6 Amanda Gil — a 2009 second-team All-American — will step into UW's front line.
